I started a thread with the same exact title yesterday. Mods can delete mine if they want since there are actually replies to this one. I will repost my thoughts below:

Well Holder is getting all emotional about having a kid. Screenwriting 101 says that something will go wrong with either him or the Mom to be where he will never see kid, I hope that isn't the case.

Glad the other detective is figuring out the clues about who Skinner really was. I hope he figures out the truth and turns into an advocate/ally of Linden to help get her off the hook.

Interesting interaction between the kids at the military academy. Why is that one kid being such a jerk? Seems to go well beyond basic bullying, like he knows something or has another objective. And with the way the headmaster lady came in and punished the group it seems there is some link/communication occurring between the bully kid and the headmaster.

From Season 3 the turquoise jewelry was evidence of the connection between Lt. Skinner and the serial killings. It had belonged to one of the victims (seen in a photograph) but appeared in the possession of Skinner's daughter. This season, Reddick saw the jewelry on Skinner's daughter when she came to the station. He later saw the evidence photo from the box he dropped. It has triggered his suspicion that the serial killer case is not yet resolved.

... I love how Linden and Holder are so tight now. Funny to think back to season 1...

Yeah, I found Holder to be unbearably obnoxious in S01, but his character has really grown on me. They seem to have cut back on the constant chain-smoking as well as the constant downpours. Both were major distractions and the cutbacks are major improvements IMHO.

I'm unclear on the significance of the ring/broach. Also was that girl at the end the dead cops daughter?

Actually, Reddick first noticed the photo of the ring when he dropped the one box of evidence after Holder stole his coffee and donut. Then Skinner's daughter showed up shortly after that. It's a trophy from one of Skinner's victims.

It appears that Reddick's character is undergoing some redemption this season as well, but did the writers really have to push the stereotype of the donut obsessed cop?
